2-3 days a week - MUST be a confident, competent rider, please do not be dishonest regarding your experience, these are not suitable horses for people coming back after a bad experience.

1st horse - Tilly, chestnut mare, 16/16.1hh 5 years old. Tilly is suitable for a confident novice to an extent but she is a baby, she would take anyone from complete beginner to seasoned rider on a road hack, on the forest she can be wary of ditches and gauze and as such for this she then needs a confident experienced rider to push her on. Schooling she is great but can be nappy/lazy if not consistently schooling. She has never bucked, bolted or reared even when pushed however she can be strong if leading in canter.

2nd horse - Echo, rose grey gelding, 16.2hh, 4 years old. Echo needs a more experienced confident rider, again he has never bucked, bolted or reared but he can be nappy and his napping can mean spinning to go the other way, he is also completely new to hacking and schooling having only come off the race track in April this year so he is still learning everything and learning to slow down. He has paces to die for when riding, he has the most floaty trot and his canter is like riding a marshmallow. He can feel strong and he does still need to learn that he doesn’t have to go fast everywhere but equally he’s a chilled out relatively easy ride in all senses.

Both horses are good for the farrier, good to groom and pickup feet. They have their individual quirks which will explain to any potential rider but for ex racing thoroughbreds they are some of the most level headed trainable horses I’ve ever met. Both are willing, safe & honest but green.

Due to disability I desperately need help keeping them going. They are based in Sway with fantastic facilities and forest hacking. No joy riders who are looking to just fly around the forest.
